One of the interesting things about BNSF coal trains on the Orin Sub is that trains enter and exit from both the north end and south end of the sub. This means that coal loads meet each other and coal empties meet each other. Here, an empty heads east (geographically south) on Main 2 through Reno Junction, headed for a mine further south. The load out, with an impressive conveyor belt reaching it, is the Black Thunder West load out.
